Forecastle will be looking for some outstanding volunteers to help us put on the 2016 festival.

Forecastle Volunteer Requirements:

Must be at least 18 years old

Must pay a $20 non-refundable application fee

Must put down a $180 deposit that will be refunded shortly after the festival as long as you complete your work assignments

Must show up for all assigned shifts on time, sober, wearing proper attire, and ready to work until you are dismissed.

You’ll have your choice of three different schedule tracks:

PRE-Show: Must be available to work a minimum of 18 hours spread into 3 six-hour shifts between July 11th and 14th. Yes, you work a few more hours than During-Show volunteers, but you’re done before the festival ever starts.

During-Show: Must be available to work a minimum of 12 hours spread into 2 six-hour shifts between July 15th and 17th. Sure, you work during the festival, but you will work one less shift and are guaranteed one full day off during the festival to enjoy the shows.

During/Post-Show: Must be available to work a minimum of 18 hours spread into 1 six-hour shift between July 15th and 17th and 2 six-hour shifts between July 18th and 19th. If you’re willing to stick around and work after the festival, you’ll only have to miss a small portion of the event and are guaranteed two full days off during the festival to enjoy the shows.

What do you get?

In exchange for your contribution to the success of an amazing event, you will receive a festival t-shirt to commemorate your experience and access to the festival whenever you aren’t working.

What do you do?

Forecastle Logistics: These volunteers work in a variety of areas throughout the festival helping with any number of tasks. You could be helping build an art project, setting up different fan experience areas, or working in customer service related jobs among other things. These jobs could possibly include some heavy lifting.

Clean Vibes: These volunteers are all about maintaining and preserving a clean site. You could be helping assure that our fans are properly disposing of their trash, recyclable, and compostable products, helping prep the site each morning before the festival opens, or helping clean up the site after the event ends. These jobs could also possibly include some heavy lifting.
